NET REGISTRARS ANGERED BY GOVERNMENT'S DOMAIN-NAME PLANS The international organization called the Internet Council of Registrars (CORE) is vowing to lobby against a recommendation by Ira Magaziner, the Clinton Administration's special advisor for Internet issues, to allow only one of seven proposed new domain names to be added immediately. Magaziner's recommendation also would extend the existing rights of Network Solutions Inc., which has an exclusive contract with the government to administer the ".com," ".net," and ".org" names. Don Heath, president of the Internet Society, says now that the government is involved with these issues, the situation is in "chaos." (New York Times Cybertimes 23 Jan 98)
